KM4RT Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 we usually get builders to do free shit at the end of the job by giving them beer. ie..........1 carton of beer = 2-3 hours of free labor (exc. materials) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harvey Wallbanger Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Seriously, though, congratulations dude. Go with wood floors. You can always put rugs down if you want to, and then you have a lot more flexibility if you stain one of them or decide you want to change the color scheme. Plus you can skateboard in the house.

Poesia [ ] T Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Molester there are homes all day in the 350K range in California. 250K for that matter. Its just what you want. Yall im gonna be honest you need to seriously think about buying a new home built, you can make way more money than 8K in one day, I seriously think you should calm down let that felling go away about having a nice new house you built. Your not building it so your not making money the builder is and they are pocketing money. Builders are one of the major reasons why the market is so bad. They have so much profit margin they are able to drop the prices and slash prices after you sign the contract in order to finish off the final phases. I deal with homes and loans everday, and KB is not an investment that would benefit you within the next 5 yrs. I bet you can find a comparable home for alot less. The other homes have already been sucked dry of there equity and are owned by banks or are short sales. Most buyers that bought are trying to sue the builders. As the same houses they bought for 500K 2 years ago are now still selling today for 375K. They still owe sometimes 500K. But the builders in order to clear the inventory have to sell at the current market value to compete. So they sell a new home brand new same as the one people bought 2 yrs ago same model more options 5% commission for almost 125K less. These are people that got good loans not subprime, but they are having to owe that much more cant sell and usually letting it foreclose. Im ranting but to someone else on 12 oz i would just give my advice. take it for what it is. This is not a car you can return if you cant afford. Its one of the best times to buy, but that doesnt mean buy anything. Take advantage of the inventory buy a home for under market value way under then when you sell you are way ahead. Just cause you think you made 8K in one day doesnt mean its really there. By the final phases they will be giving away all the upgrades and lot premiums. Those that paid and had them put into the purchase price will be screwed more if they have to sell. You still have to factor if an emergency you had to sell in one year do you have the 6% commission available. Texas appreciates rather slow and 6% is about 2-3 years worth if your lucky. Think it out, and if it still makes sense good for you. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THANKYOU Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share Posted April 6, 2008 poesia- you seem to know alot, so i'm not going to say you're wrong. but fuck it, life's life, this is my first house, it's not going to be the last ya know what i mean? so it's all good, as long as i get a good rate, if i have to wait out the housing market so be it. it will be real world austin 2 before i go under please believe me. i'll bring in a few mother fuckers at $600 a piece before i lose my house. believe. i know i've said some stupid shit and fucked up over the years in some peoples eyes but i am a pretty smart cat when it comes to some things, and i fucking play to win, period. so somehow some way i'll make it happen. but again, thanks for all the advice, i love to hear it, nothing wrong with learning and progressing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 250 you can get all the house you need in pittsburg or bay point. It's further west than brentwood or antioch, has BART and is way cheaper than concord.
